>Why is GDPR disproportionately a problem for foreign tech? The legal resources being actively applied against foreign companies, and I'm including the legal resources of civil groups that receive state funding in that definition if it matters, is concentrated predominantly on foreign entities. The raw economic impact, in part due to the concentrated nature of the legal action being pursued, is much larger against foreign entities such as FaceBook, Google, etc. Put succinctly, it's disproportionately a problem because the realized effects of the GDPR have been more hostile towards those entities. > You really think there isn't tons of work to do for many local companies as well? I think you're either being rhetorical or you've misunderstood my point. I'm not arguing EU companies don't have any work to do. I'm arguing that from a legislative perspective it's a small trade when you compare the size of the foreign sector to the domestic sector. In my parent comment I acknowledged that this doesn't immediately imply foul play before going on to say that it's hard to not view these actions as such when the EU treats its own corporate scandals/misbehavior so lightly by comparison such as in the case of Volkswagen.
